Assault breakfast

**Written by Doug Powers It’s game day — Super Sunday, which if you’re not careful can morph into not-so-super-Monday. I’ll be having a bit of company tonight here at the compound and trying a various assortment of appetizers and drinks, not necessarily in that order. The only rule is that anybody who uses the term […]

“Terrorist threat”

When mea culpas attack

Snackdown

Fire up

Thirteen men and women, plus the unborn child of Pvt. Francheska Velez, died in the bloody terrorist rampage at Fort Hood three years ago today. Never forget. 1. Lt. Col. Juanita Warman, 55, Havre de Grace, Md. 2. Maj. Libardo Caraveo, 52, Woodbridge, Va. 3. Cpt. John P. Gaffaney, 54, San Diego, Calif. 4. Cpt. […]

When I first saw reports on Twitter that Chick-fil-A had caved to the tolerance mob, I despaired. Corporation after corporation has given in to the free speech-squelching agitators on the Left who demand political conformity. Turns out the information was coming from progressive activists trying to shape a false narrative. Chick-fil-A responds via CitizenLink: n […]

The Condensed Liberal Handbook of Racial Code Words by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Thumper the Rabbit’s parents always taught him, “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all.” If the left’s self-appointed Omniscient Diviners of True Meaning have their way, conservatives in the public square won’t be left with anything […]

Check out Twitchy’s amazing social media photo album of today’s Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day. In cities across the country, thousands of happy and peaceful customers turned out to show their support of the First Amendment and free enterprise. Here’s a nice video montage: Readers send more reports and pics: Reader Rick: “I just wanted to let […]

Today is National Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, but judging from the nationwide social media reports last week, customers didn’t wait for the official day to start showing their support. The fast-food chicken restaurant has seen standing-room-only dining areas and clogged drive-through lines all week since the mayors of Boston and Chicago openly declared their desire to […]

Plus, high profile support for buycott

“Back off”

The tolerance police are out of control. It may be summer time, but some college campuses never take a break from P.C. indoctrination. Take Georgetown University, where a minority student has reportedly been kicked out of a summer scholars program for refusing to participate in an LGBT sensitivity training workshop. Kira Davis has the scoop […]

In defense of Brad Pitt’s mom by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Hollywood and the American left love diversity, except when it offends their “progressive” value system. Witness the reaction to actor Brad Pitt’s mother, Jane, who publicly opposed President Obama’s re-election. Mrs. Pitt’s pro-life, anti-gay marriage statement to her local paper last week […]

Can’t sell: licorice and Starburst — Can sell: ice cream and Snickers

How the Gay-Marriage Mob Slimed Manny Pacquiao by Michelle Malkin Creators Syndicate Copyright 2012 Boxing champion Manny Pacquiao is guilty — of being true to his Catholic faith. The gay-marriage mob is guilty — of the very ugly bigotry it claims to abhor. And left-wing media outlets are guilty — of stoking false narratives that […]

This fringe chump is wielding a disturbing amount of political power to silence free-market, limited government voices. What are you doing about it? My column this week is a follow-up to last week’s piece on ALEC vs. the progressive mob/corporate appeasers. Be sure to read the entire column (plus my e-mail exchanges with several cowardly […]

I’ll get to the ridiculous AAJA “media coverage guidelines” on basketball star Jeremy Lin in a moment. First, some background. I’ve been poking fun of the “Asian American Journalists Association” for more than a decade. The idea of color-coded journalism steeped in identity politics has always grated on my nerves. But no one does a […]

File under “What if a top-ranking GOP official had said this?” Chimichanga would be the new macaca. Lefty WaPo columnist Dana Milbank mocked Republicans for not doing enough to grovel to Latino voters. He snarked: “The chimichanga? It may be the only thing Republicans have left to offer Latinos.” (Full context of the entire Chimichanga […]
